DEZE MYSTERIEUZE BERG OP DWERGPLANEET CERES IS HOGER DAN DE MONT BLANC
DEZE MYSTERIEUZE BERG OP DWERGPLANEET CERES IS HOGER DAN DE MONT BLANC
Tim Kraaijvanger
Ook dwergplaneten hebben hoge bergen. In 2015 arriveerde de Dawn-ruimtesonde bij dwergplaneet Ceres en fotografeerde daar deze reus: Ahuna Mons.
Het zonnestelsel telt naast acht planeten ook nog vijf dwergplaneten. Dit zijn Pluto, Eris, Makemake, Haumea en Ceres. Ceres is de enige dwergplaneet in de planetoïdengordel tussen Mars en Jupiter. De andere dwergplaneten bevinden zich in de Kuipergordel achter de baan van Neptunus.
De meeste planetoïden in de hoofdgordel hebben een onregelmatige vorm. Ceres is met een diameter van 950 kilometer best groot en heeft daardoor een bolle vorm, net zoals alle planeten en veel manen. Tot 2015 was er nog weinig bekend over de dwergplaneet, maar dankzij de Dawn-missie zijn wetenschappers veel meer te weten gekomen over dit bijzondere hemellichaam.
Zo heeft Ceres een berg. Dat is best bijzonder, want verder is Ceres zo goed als vlak. In eerste instantie was onduidelijk hoe de vier kilometer hoge berg was ontstaan. “Niemand verwachtte een berg op Ceres en zeker geen berg zoals Ahuna Mons,” vertelt onderzoeker Chris Russell. Later kwamen wetenschappers erachter dat de berg door cryovulkanisme is ontstaan.
Als je de onderstaande foto ziet van Ahuna Mons lijkt het net alsof iemand een gat heeft gegraven op Ceres en de hoop ernaast niet heeft opgeruimd.
Een bewerkte foto van Ahuna Mons op Ceres.
Heldere vlekken op Ceres Ruimtesonde Dawn heeft nog meer bijzondere structuren gespot. Zo trof het ruimtevaartuig mysterieuze heldere vlekken aan op het oppervlak van de dwergplaneet. “We kunnen concluderen dat de intense helderheid van deze vlekken te wijten is aan de reflectie van zonlicht door zeer reflecterend materiaal op het oppervlak, mogelijk ijs,” vertelt onderzoeker Christopher Russell. De witte vlekken zijn rijk aan natriumcarbonaat. Dit natriumcarbonaat komt uit de zoute ondergrondse waterreservoirs van Ceres. Daarmee lijkt Ceres een beetje op sommige manen van Jupiter en Saturnus, die ook waterrijke werelden zijn.
In 2018 viel het doek voor Dawn. Het ruimtevaartuig was na een reis van elf jaar door zijn brandstof heen. De sonde cirkelt momenteel ‘levensloos’ rond de dwergplaneet en zal de komende decennia niet neerstorten op Ceres. Zo blijft het oppervlak onaangetast.
Hoewel Dawn zelf met pensioen is, laat de ruimtesonde een berg aan gegevens achter waar onderzoekers de komende tijd nog wel even zoet mee zijn. “De datasets van Dawn zullen nauwkeurig doorgespit worden om te onderzoeken waar en wanneer leven in ons zonnestelsel zich zou kunnen hebben gevormd,” zegt onderzoeksleider Carol Raymond.

NASA Will Inspire World When It Returns Mars Samples to Earth in 2033

NASA has finished the system requirements review for its Mars Sample Return Program, which is nearing completion of the conceptual design phase. During this phase, the program team evaluated and refined the architecture to return the scientifically selected samples, which are currently in the collection process by NASA’s Perseverance rover in the Red Planet’s Jezero Crater.
The architecture for the campaign, which includes contributions from the European Space Agency (ESA), is expected to reduce the complexity of future missions and increase probability of success.
“The conceptual design phase is when every facet of a mission plan gets put under a microscope,” said Thomas Zurbuchen, associate administrator for science at NASA Headquarters in Washington. “There are some significant and advantageous changes to the plan, which can be directly attributed to Perseverance’s recent successes at Jezero and the amazing performance of our Mars helicopter.”
This advanced mission architecture takes into consideration a recently updated analysis of Perseverance’s expected longevity. Perseverance will be the primary means of transporting samples to NASA’s Sample Retrieval Lander carrying the Mars Ascent Vehicle and ESA’s Sample Transfer Arm.
As such, the Mars Sample Return campaign will no longer include the Sample Fetch Rover or its associated second lander. The Sample Retrieval Lander will include two sample recovery helicopters, based on the design of the Ingenuity helicopter, which has performed 29 flights at Mars and survived over a year beyond its original planned lifetime. The helicopters will provide a secondary capability to retrieve samples cached on the surface of Mars.
With planned launch dates for the Earth Return Orbiter and Sample Retrieval Lander in fall 2027 and summer 2028, respectively, the samples are expected to arrive on Earth in 2033.
With its architecture solidified during this conceptual design phase, the program is expected to move into its preliminary design phase this October. In this phase, expected to last about 12 months, the program will complete technology development and create engineering prototypes of the major mission components.
This refined concept for the Mars Sample Return campaign was presented to the delegates from the 22 participating states of Europe’s space exploration program, Terrae Novae, in May. At their next meeting in September, the states will consider the discontinuation of the development of the Sample Fetch Rover.
“ESA is continuing at full speed the development of both the Earth Return Orbiter that will make the historic round-trip from Earth to Mars and back again; and the Sample Transfer Arm that will robotically place the sample tubes aboard the Orbiting Sample Container before its launch from the surface of the Red Planet,” said David Parker, ESA director of Human and Robotic Exploration.
The respective contributions to the campaign are contingent upon available funding from the U.S. and ESA participating states. More formalized agreements between the two agencies will be established in the next year.
“Working together on historic endeavors like Mars Sample Return not only provides invaluable data about our place in the universe but brings us closer together right here on Earth,” said Zurbuchen.
The first step in the Mars Sample Return Campaign is already in progress. Since it landed at Jezero Crater Feb. 18, 2021, the Perseverance rover has collected 11 scientifically-compelling rock core samples and one atmospheric sample.
Bringing Mars samples to Earth would allow scientists across the world to examine the specimens using sophisticated instruments too large and too complex to send to Mars and would enable future generations to study them. Curating the samples on Earth would also allow the science community to test new theories and models as they are developed, much as the Apollo samples returned from the Moon have done for decades. This strategic NASA and ESA partnership will fulfill a solar system exploration goal, a high priority since the 1970s and in the last three National Academy of Sciences Planetary Science Decadal Surveys.
On NASA’s Artemis missions, a unique spacecraft will take flight. Orion, NASA’s newest spacecraft built for humans, is developed to be capable of sending astronauts to the Moon and is a key part of eventually sending them on to Mars.
An uncrewed Orion will be tested on Artemis I and travel 40,000 miles past the Moon, farther than any spacecraft built for humans has gone before. This mission will prepare for a crewed Artemis II mission and subsequent missions that will deliver astronauts to the surface of the Moon and to the lunar Gateway.
Orion’s crew and service module will carry astronauts to deep space. The launch abort system, positioned at the top of the spacecraft, is only used to pull the crew module and the astronauts inside it safely away from the rocket in the event of an emergency, and will be jettisoned after a successful launch and ascent atop the Space Launch System rocket.
Crew Module
Orion’s crew module, sometimes referred to as the capsule, capitalizes on more than 60 years of NASA space exploration experience. Built by main contractor Lockheed Martin, it can provide living space on missions for four astronauts for up to 21 days without docking to another spacecraft. Advances in technology for deep space travel such as life support, avionics, power systems, and state-of-the-art thermal protection will support the crew during launch, landing, and recovery.
Pressure vessel
The underlying structure of the crew module is called the pressure vessel. The pressure vessel consists of seven large aluminum alloy pieces that are joined together using friction-stir welding at NASA’s Michoud Assembly Facility in New Orleans. The process produces a strong, yet lightweight, airtight capsule.
Backshell
Covering the pressure vessel is the protective cover on the cone-shaped sides of the crew module known as the backshell, made up of 1,300 thermal protection system tiles. The tiles are made of a silica fiber material similar to those used for more than 30 years on the space shuttle, and will protect the spacecraft from both the cold of space and the extreme heat of re-entry.
Technicians install three spacecraft adapter jettison fairings onto the Artemis I Orion spacecraft inside the Operations and Checkout Building at NASA's Kennedy Space Center on Oct. 12, 2020. The fairings are secured around the spacecraft, encapsulating the European Service Module to protect it from harsh environments as the spacecraft is propelled out of Earth’s atmosphere atop the Space Launch System (SLS) rocket.

Heat shield
The bottom of the capsule, which will experience the hottest temperatures as Orion returns to Earth, is covered by the world’s largest ablative heat shield, measuring 16.5 feet in diameter. The heat shield will protect Orion as it enters Earth’s atmosphere initially travelling about 25,000 mph and endure temperatures of nearly 5,000°F — about half as hot as the Sun.
The outer surface of the heat shield is made of blocks of a material called Avcoat, a reformulated version of the material used on the Apollo capsules. During descent, the Avcoat ablates, or burns off in a controlled fashion, transporting heat away from Orion.
Forward Bay Cover
The forward bay cover at the top of the crew module protects the top portion of the capsule and Orion’s parachutes during launch, orbital flight, and re-entry. It is covered with the same thermal protection tiles as the backshell. After the spacecraft re-enters Earth’s atmosphere, it is jettisoned at an altitude of approximately 23,000 feet to allow for deployment of the parachute system.
Reaction Control System Thrusters
The crew module has a propulsion system composed of 12 small engines called reaction control system thrusters. When the crew module separates from the service module for re-entry, the 12 thrusters are used to guide the crew module, ensure that it’s properly oriented with the heat shield facing downward, and keep the spacecraft stable during its descent.
Interior
Inside Orion, an aluminum structure of crisscrossing beams called the backbone assembly provides the floor structure where the crew seats will be attached and is where the crew stowage lockers will be located. Most of the equipment the crew will need to live in space on future missions will be stored here.
The four seats in the crew module are designed to accommodate nearly 99% of the human population. The seats are adjustable to ensure that astronauts can reach all the controls while in their pressure suits.
Crew Accommodations
A number of accommodations will help astronauts feel at home. Tanks and a dispenser provide drinking water and a simple way to rehydrate and warm food. Orion’s hygiene bay will have a new compact toilet, with a design that makes use in space easier for both men and women. A built-in exercise device provides both aerobic and strength training for astronauts. In case of a radiation event, such as a solar flare, crew members will shelter themselves in two large stowage lockers on the floor of the capsule, using the dense materials on board as shielding.
Displays and Controls
Astronauts will operate Orion using a sophisticated display and control system that uses advanced software to aid the crew. The crew will be able to command the spacecraft using just three display screens, about 60 physical switches, two rotational hand controllers, two translational hand controllers, and two cursor control devices. Electronic procedures are also programmed into the system to aid the crew in daily and emergency processes, saving the crew time and space and making large paper manuals of system operations obsolete.
Environmental Control and Life Support Systems
Environmental control and life support systems will make the crew module a habitable place for astronauts. A new regenerable system removes carbon dioxide and humidity and keeps the cabin air clean. The system also maintains the spacecraft’s temperature and pressure and detects if the internal environment becomes unsafe. Orion’s Crew Survival System spacesuits interface with life support to keep astronauts alive for up to six days to allow them to return home in the event of cabin depressurization.
Parachutes
The crew module houses Orion’s parachute system. The parachutes ensure a safe landing for astronauts returning to Earth at high speeds in the spacecraft. Earth’s atmosphere acting as a brake on Orion will initially slow the spacecraft down from about 25,000 mph to 325 mph. Then, the system of 11 parachutes must deploy in precise sequence to slow Orion to a relatively gentle 20 mph for splashdown in the Pacific Ocean.
Components of the Orion spacecraft.
European Service Module
Below the crew module is Orion’s European Service Module, provided by ESA (European Space Agency) and built by lead contractor Airbus. The service module is the spacecraft’s powerhouse: supplying it with electricity, propulsion, thermal control, air, and water.
Propulsion
Orion’s service module provides propulsion capabilities that enable Orion to go around the Moon and back on its missions. The service module has 33 engines of various sizes. The main engine will provide major maneuvering capabilities while in space, including inserting Orion into distant retrograde orbit and leaving the orbit to return to Earth. The 24 reaction control thrusters are used to steer and control Orion while in orbit. Eight auxiliary engines are also used for translational maneuvers, essentially acting as a backup to the main engine. The propulsion system also has the ability to bring the crew home in a variety of emergency situations, including abort scenarios after the launch abort system has already been jettisoned.
Power
The service module’s electrical power system provides power for the entire Orion spacecraft. The system manages the power generated by the module’s four solar array wings, which provide enough electricity to power two three-bedroom homes. A total of 15,000 solar cells on the four arrays are used to convert light into electricity, and the arrays can turn to remain aligned with the Sun for maximum power.
Thermal Control
The thermal control system includes radiators and heat exchangers to keep the astronauts and equipment at a comfortable temperature. The thermal control system includes an active portion, which transfers the heat of the entire spacecraft to the service module radiators, and a passive portion, which protects the service module from internal and external thermal environments.
Consumable Storage
The consumable storage system of the service module provides potable water, nitrogen, and oxygen to the crew module, stored in tanks. Potable water is provided by the water delivery system, covering usable water needs of the crew for the duration of the mission. Oxygen and nitrogen are provided by the gas delivery system, with the amount of gases in each tank adjustable based on the mission profile.
Orion’s crew module will separate from the service module shortly before re-entering Earth’s atmosphere. The crew module is the only portion of Orion that will return to Earth at the end of each mission. On early flights, high-value crew module components such as avionics, and environmental control and life support systems will be reused, with plans to reuse more components on later missions.
Through Artemis missions, NASA will land the first woman and the first person of color on the Moon, paving the way for a long-term, sustainable lunar presence and serving as a steppingstone for future astronaut missions to Mars.

The US Space Force (USSF) is in news highlights these days after a 29-year-old man tried to intrude on the world’s only independent space force base. He wanted to warn U.S. officials about an impending battle between dragons and aliens. The story is yet to provide more information about the case.
Meanwhile, the existence of the “Space Force” baffles many people, as the US army believes space has become a crucial place to protect. Then why does the USSF need Luis Elizondo who ran the Pentagon secret UFO program AATIP? He has been disclosing UAP/UFO information in interviews and podcasts that potentially change the field of UFOlogy. Most importantly, Elizondo slightly hinted that aliens are breeding among us. There is more to the reality that a human mind can conceive, he stated.
The US army has been actively working on space technology since the ending of World War II. Although the USSF is only 2 years old, it took the United States almost five decades to officially launch a separate branch that serves to protect space. Currently, U.S. Space Force has approximately 16,000 military and civilian space personnel. (Source)

President Reagan And Alien Threats
It is funny that some people believe that the delta symbol in the USSF seal is inspired by the Star Trek fictitious symbol. The reality is that the science-fiction TV series has borrowed so much of its iconic rank symbols from the U.S. military and NASA. But many seek the answer to the query if there is any Star Trek-like alien threat in reality.
What would happen if aliens attacked the Earth? Most probably, all the world powers would unite to fight against them. That is what Ronald Reagan said to Mikhail Gorbachev privately during the 1985 Geneva Summit. President Reagan is fairly known for his UFO sightings and incredible remarks on extraterrestrials. There are several occasions where he tried to tell the world that aliens exist.
President Reagan made several remarks about the “alien threat” in his speeches from 1985 to 1988. In one of his speeches to the UN, he said: “What if all of us in the world were threatened by an outer power, from outer space, from another planet? We would all of a sudden find out that we didn’t have any differences at all.” None of the presidential aides, speechwriters, and handlers liked what he said. Besides, it never appeared in original drafts. Despite it, Reagan continued adding it subtly. (Click here to read the full story)
Interestingly, during a special screening of “ET: The Extra-Terrestrial” at the White House in 1982, Reagan whispered to Steven Spielberg that everything shown in the movie was real. It was confirmed by Spielberg while giving an interview to Quint (aka Eric Vespe). Spielberg said: “No, he wasn’t ushered out of the room. He was the President of the United States! Nobody could usher Ronald Reagan out of the room! It was in the White House screening room and Reagan got up to thank me for bringing the film to show the President, the First Lady, and all of their guests, which included Sandra Day O’Connor in her first week as a Justice of the Supreme Court, and it included some astronauts… I think Neil Armstrong was there, I’m not 100% certain, but it was an amazing, amazing evening.”
In December 2020, the former head of the Israeli space security program and retired general, Haim Eshed claimed that a sort of agreement had been made between aliens and the US government to keep silent on their experiments on Earth and secret bases on Mars.
In an interview with Yediot Aharonot (Israel daily newspaper), the 87-year-old professor said that the aliens and “Galactic federation” do exist and have been working with the US and the Israel government for years, but they keep it a secret to avoid mass hysteria.
Israel’s former space head Haim Eshed
Haim Eshed is considered to be the “father of Israel’s satellite program.” He got his bachelor’s degree from the Technion, a master’s degree in performance research, and a doctorate in aeronautical engineering. In 1981, he became the head of Israeli satellite projects in the Defence Ministry, where 20 satellites were launched under his guidance. He retired from the Defence Ministry in 2011. (Click here to read the full story)
President Reagan and Haim Eshed’s statements are the real facts. One was worried about alien threats while the other was discussing an agreement between humans and extraterrestrials. Do these cases hint that the real purpose of the creation of the USSF could be more than just protecting some satellites? Probably to fight aliens?
Luis Elizondo, A Contractor For The US Space Force
Liberation Times actively works to bring compelling information relating to Unidentified Aerial Phenomena. They have confirmed that Luis Elizondo is a contractor for the Space Force. Additionally, Elizondo is also working as a research affiliate in the Galileo Project led by Professor Avi Loeb.
Snippet from Politico slightly confirms Luis Elizondo as a new consultant to the U.S. Space Command on UAP. Source
Elizondo told The New York Times he resigned from the Department of Defense in October in protest over what he called excessive secrecy surrounding the UFO program AATIP and internal opposition to it after funding for the effort ended in 2012. He said that he could not speak on behalf of the government, but he strongly implied there was evidence that stopped him from ruling out the possibility that alien aircraft visited Earth. (Source)
In April 1941, a local sheriff visited Reverend William Huffman, a pastor of the Red Star Baptist Church in Cape Girardeau, on the banks of the Mississippi, Missouri. The sheriff asked the pastor to hold a service for the victims of a plane crash that had allegedly happened on the same day near the city.
Huffman agreed and arrived at the crash site. The place was full of police officers, FBI agents, firefighters, military men, doctors, and there were debris of some kind of aircraft.
Reverend William Huffman offered blessings to three dead aliens outside of Cape Girardeau in 1941
First of all, Huffman was surprised to see the wreckage of the plane because it was totally different from the usual airplane. He knew it from his experience of traveling in both military & passenger airplanes.
Huffman had never seen anything like that.
The object was metallic and shaped like a giant saucer. There were no seams or joints visible on it. Huffman tried looking inside the destroyed object through the huge hole that was at the outer surface of the object. He saw there a small metal chair, some instruments and consoles with dials, and also many other things that he had never seen before, which it would be very difficult for him to describe.
Some unknown man gave Huffman a photograph of the incident
At some point, Huffman saw some strange inscriptions that resembled Egyptian hieroglyphs.
Huffman went to the three dead bodies lying on the ground near the object to give them last rites. When he saw the bodies closely, he was shocked because they were dead aliens the size of a small child.
He guessed that those aliens had probably been the pilots of the crashed object. He noticed that the two of the bodies were lying next to each other, but the third one was at some distance.
He thought that the third one had not died in the crash immediately and managed to go away some steps further from the spacecraft.
Huffman said the aliens were very small in size (only 4 feet)
According to the pastor, the creatures had tiny mouths with indistinguishable noses and no ears at all. They were wearing tight suits that looked like chewed aluminum foil.
When Huffman finished his prayers, several military men approached him and told him to keep his mouth shut about that incident. Therefore, for all those years, he had not told anyone about it, but he shared everything with his wife and sons.
In 1984, Mrs. Huffman, dying of cancer, told her granddaughter Charlette Mann about everything. She also said that her husband somehow managed to secretly take a photo of one of the dead aliens from an unknown man.
Huffman’s granddaughter Charlette Mann
According to Mann, at some point, she had also seen that photo but does not know why one day, it disappeared. She contacted ufologist Leonard Stringfield, who wrote about the incident in one of his books.
The alleged photograph was given to Huffman by some unknown man on the street
When Stringfield heard this story, he began to dig for other possible witnesses who may have still been alive. He found the sheriff of Cape Girardeau that served at the time of the incident, and he confessed to him that everything Huffman’s family said was true. He also managed to track down the alleged photograph, which Mann revealed.
Ufologists Ryan Wood and Stan Friedman also investigated the case.
Official history tells us that 17 missions were launched between 1961 and 1975, of which 11 were manned (Apollo 7 through Apollo 17). During this time, 6 successful landings on the lunar surface were made. The Apollo 18, 19, and 20 flights were canceled due to the lack of new scientific value at the huge expense of the state budget and taxpayers. However, in 2007, Italian freelance journalist Luca Scantamburlo took a written interview with William Rutledge, who claims to be a member of the secret Apollo 20 mission.
According to him, he was an employee of Bell Laboratories and served in the US Air Force. Rutledge attracted public attention by starting to distribute photographs and videos of the Apollo 20 mission online in 2007 which captured the same spaceship and its pilots.
Alien Spaceship Found On Moon With Alien Bodies
What is the essence of the information from Rutledge? He claimed that during the Apollo 15 mission to the moon, an unidentified man-made object was discovered and photographed on its surface.
During missions 16 and 17, several more photographs were taken and reconnaissance of the terrain from orbit was carried out. The task of missions 18 and 19 (which was no longer officially) is not really clear: Rutledge only says that during these missions, a number of problems occurred, as a result of which research data was lost. It was originally planned to land next to an alien ship and study it using rovers.
Humanoid body found on the moon during Apollo 19&20
In 1976, the Apollo 20 mission was launched, which included: William Rutledge, Aleksei Leonov, and Leona Snyder. They managed to land by the ship, get inside, and inspect the interior of the ship, and the bodies of the pilots. One of the sources said that they not only examined the bodies but also took the head of one of the bodies with them.
The dimensions of the ship were 3370 x 510 meters; the age is estimated at 1.5 million years; inside, there are many signs of biological life: remnants of vegetation in the engine compartment of the ship, stones of a triangular shape that exude a yellow liquid that has some medical properties, the remains of small bodies (about 10 cm) that lived in a network of “glass” pipes piercing the whole ship.
Alien Spaceship
They found a humanoid, female, 1.65 meters. She had genitals, hair, six fingers (we assume the math is based on a dozen). She was a pilot, there was an aerobatics device connected to her fingers and eyes, the body had no clothes, and they had to cut two cables connected to the nose without nostrils. Leonov detached the device from the eyes. Blood clots or bio-fluids burst and froze in the mouth, nose, eyes, and parts of the body. Some parts of the body were in unusually good condition, hair and skin were protected by a thin transparent layer of protection. The condition seemed neither dead nor alive. The booth was full of inscriptions and formed from long, hollow hexagonal tubes.
Apollo 19 & 20 missions
On the other hand, one can only guess that this was the ship of the Anunnaki, about which Sitchin or some other guys wrote.
Doubts are caused by the number of fingers, these humanoids have 12 of them (6 on each hand), and we know that the Anunnaki used the hexadecimal numbering system and on all the frescoes, they have 5-fingered palms.
We also know that the Anunnaki had a parallel mission in low-Earth orbit: one part of them worked on Earth, the other part remained on the mother ship. It may well be that they used the moon and one of the ships remained there. Another interesting fact is that the team of engineers who actually implemented the Apollo project was headed by Wernher von Braun, who during Nazi Germany worked for the benefit of the Third Reich, creating for them the famous V-2 rockets.
Braun came to America along with many other German scientists removed from Germany as part of Operation Paperclip in 1945. And the colossal technological breakthrough of the engineers of the Third Reich happened due to cooperation with the occult societies of Ahnenerbe and Vril, who obtained information from the ancient egregors of the Gods related to our civilization.
Braun had an interesting chain of events: German occult societies -> moving to the USA -> working on a space program -> detecting an alien spacecraft, possibly the very same Gods who advised the Nazis. He survived until 1977 and saw the launch of Apollo 20 and, moreover, according to Rutledge, was personally present at the launch.

July 28 (UPI) -- NASA officials have changed the agency's plans for its daring and complicated effort to bring actual samples of Mars back to Earth by adding two helicopters and ditching the idea of landing a "fetch rover."
In a joint project with the European Space Agency, NASA has a goal of returning Martian samples back to Earth by 2033. The rover Perseverance is already on the Red Planet with the charge of collecting the samples.
Scientists have been encouraged by the performance of the rover and the current Martian helicopter Ingenuity, which arrived with Perseverance last year.
Perseverance will be tasked with bringing the samples to a Mars ascent vehicle with the two helicopters, modeled after Ingenuity, serving as a Plan B.
NASA's Mars rover Perseverance acquired this image in March 2021 using its onboard Left Navigation Camera. The camera is located high on the rover's mast and aids in driving. The rover has been collecting samples that NASA announced this week will be returned to Earth in 2033.
"The conceptual design phase is when every facet of a mission plan gets put under a microscope," said Thomas Zurbuchen, associate administrator for science at NASA headquarters in Washington, said Wednesday in a statement.
"There are some significant and advantageous changes to the plan, which can be directly attributed to Perseverance's recent successes at Jezero [Crater on Mars] and the amazing performance of our Mars helicopter."
If Perseverance fails to retrieve the samples, the helicopter will be sent out to capture the sample and place them within reach of the ESA's ascent vehicle, eliminating the need for a second rover.
NASA's Perseverance rover touched down on Mars on February 18, 2021. The rover has since been exploring the planet and collecting samples that the agency announced on Wednesday will be retrieved and brought back to Earth in 2033.
"ESA is continuing at full speed the development of both the Earth Return Orbiter that will make the historic round-trip from Earth to Mars and back again; and the Sample Transfer Arm that will robotically place sample tubes aboard the Orbiting Sample Container before its launch from the surface of the Red Planet," said David Parker, ESA's director of human and robotic exploration.
Dispatches from Mars: Perseverance rover sends images
NASA's Perseverance Mars rover, using its Mastcam-Z camera system, captured this view of the Martian sunset on November 9, 2021, the 257th Martian day, or sol, of the mission. Martian sunsets typically stand out for their distinctive blue color as fine dust in the atmosphere permits blue light to penetrate the atmosphere more efficiently than colors with longer wavelengths. But this sunset looks different: Less dust in the atmosphere resulted in a more muted color than average. The color has been calibrated and white-balanced to remove camera artifacts.
NASA's Perseverance Mars rover took a selfie with the Ingenuity helicopter on April 6, 2021, using the WATSON camera located at the end of the rover's long robotic arm.
In addition to the Perseverance rover, NASA has been flying a small helicopter on Mars, acquiring images and helping plot paths for the rover. The agency announced this week that a mission to Mars to retrieve samples collected on the planet's surface will include two new helicopters.
The Loch Ness Monster's existence is 'plausible', according to scientists, after fossils revealed that plesiosaurs may have lived in fresh water.
Nessie enthusiasts have long believed that the creature of Scottish folklore, which is often depicted with a long neck and small head, could be a prehistoric reptile.
However, cynics argue that even if plesiosaurs had survived the asteroid strike that wiped out the dinosaurs, the creatures could not have lived in Loch Ness because they needed a saltwater environment.
Now researchers from the University of Bath, University of Portsmouth, and Université Hassan II in Morocco, have discovered fossils of small plesiosaurs in a 100-million year old river system in the Sahara Desert.
The discovery suggests that some species of plesiosaur did live in freshwater - lending credibility to the Loch Ness Monster legend.
Plesiosaurs (right) and spinosaurus (left) may have both inhabited freshwater rivers 100 million years ago
Among the most famous claimed sightings of the Loch Ness Monster is a photograph taken in 1934 by Colonel Robert Kenneth Wilson which was published in the Daily Mail. However, the researchers point out that the last plesiosaurs died out 66 million years ago
Plesiosaur was first discovered 200 years ago
The first complete skeleton of a plesiosaur was found by English fossil hunter Mary Anning in Lyme Regis, Dorset, in 1823.
The prehistoric reptile had a small head, long neck, and four long flippers.
It was named 'near lizard', because it more closely resemble modern reptiles than icthyosaurus, which had been found in the same rock strata a few years earlier.
It lived from the late Triassic Period into the late Cretaceous Period, around 215 million to 66 million years ago, before being wiped out with the dinosaurs.
Plesiosaurs inspired reconstructions of the Loch Ness Monster, but were traditionally thought to be sea creatures.
The fossils, discovered in the Kem Kem beds of Morocco, which date back to the Late Cretaceous period, include bones and teeth from three-metre (10ft) long adults and an arm bone from a 1.5 metre (5ft) long baby.
'The bones and teeth were found scattered and in different localities, not as a skeleton. So each bone and each tooth is a different animal,' said Dr. Nick Longrich from the University of Bath's Milner Centre for Evolution.
'It's scrappy stuff, but isolated bones actually tell us a lot about ancient ecosystems and animals in them. They're so much more common than skeletons, they give you more information to work with.'
The discovery hints that the creatures routinely lived and fed in freshwater, alongside frogs, crocodiles, turtles, fish, and the huge aquatic dinosaur Spinosaurus.
The plesiosaurs' teeth show heavy wear, like those of Spinosaurus, implying they were eating the same food - chipping their teeth on the armoured fish that lived in the river.
'What amazes me is that the ancient Moroccan river contained so many carnivores all living alongside each other,' said David Martill from the University of Portsmouth.
'This was no place to go for a swim.'
Marine animals like whales and dolphins are known to wander up rivers, either to feed or because they are lost, but the researchers do not believe this explains the large number of plesiosaur fossils in the Kem Kem beds.
A more likely possibility is that the plesiosaurs were able to tolerate fresh and salt water, like some whales, such as the beluga whale.
It is even possible that the plesiosaurs were permanent residents of the river, like modern river dolphins, according to the researchers.
The fossils, discovered in the Kem Kem beds of Morocco, which date back to the Late Cretaceous period, include bones and teeth from three-metre (10ft) long adults and an arm bone from a 1.5 metre (5ft) long baby.

The plesiosaurs' small size would have let them hunt in shallow rivers, and the fossil beds indicate there were plenty of fish around.
'It's a bit controversial, but who's to say that because we paleontologists have always called them "marine reptiles", they had to live in the sea?' said Dr Longrich.
'Lots of marine lineages invaded freshwater.'
Plesiosaurs were a diverse and adaptable group, and were around for more than 100 million years.
Based on what they've found in Morocco – and what other scientists have found elsewhere – the authors suggest they might have repeatedly invaded freshwater to different degrees.
'This is another sensational discovery that adds to the many discoveries we have made in the Kem Kem over the past fifteen years of work in this region of Morocco,' said Samir Zouhri from the Universite Hassan II in Morocco.
'Kem Kem was truly an incredible biodiversity hotspot in the Cretaceous.'

The plesiosaurs belong to the family Leptocleididae - a family of small plesiosaurs often found in brackish or freshwater elsewhere in England, Africa, and Australia. Other plesiosaurs, including the long-necked elasmosaurs, have also been found in brackish or fresh waters in North America and China.
Veterinary student Arthur Grant was the first person to link the plesiosaur with the Loch Ness Monster in 1934, after he claimed to have nearly hit the creature on his motorcycle. He drew a sketch that resembled the ancient marine reptile.
A few months later, the Daily Mail published a photograph taken by gynaecologist Robert Kenneth Wilson that appeared to show a creature with a long neck and small head moving through the water. The image was later exposed as a hoax.
A press release from the University of Bath stated the new discovery showed that the Loch Ness Monster was 'on one level, plausible'.
'Plesiosaurs weren't confined to the seas, they did inhabit freshwater. But the fossil record also suggests that after almost a hundred and fifty million years, the last plesiosaurs finally died out at the same time as the dinosaurs, 66 million years ago.'
Rumours of a strange creature living in the waters of Loch Ness have abounded over the decades, yet scant evidence has been found to back up these claims.
One of the first sightings, believed to have fuelled modern Nessie fever, came in May 2, 1933.
On this date the Inverness Courier carried a story about a local couple who claim to have seen 'an enormous animal rolling and plunging on the surface'.
Another famous claimed sighting is a photograph taken in 1934 by Colonel Robert Kenneth Wilson.
It was later exposed as a hoax by one of the participants, Chris Spurling, who, on his deathbed, revealed that the pictures were staged.
Other sightings James Gray's picture from 2001 when he and friend Peter Levings were out fishing on the Loch, while namesake Hugh Gray's blurred photo of what appears to be a large sea creature was published in the Daily Express in 1933.
Robert Kenneth Wilson, a London physician, captured arguably the most famous image of the Loch Ness Monster. The surgeon’s photograph was published in the Daily Mail on April 21, 1934
The first reported sighting of the monster is said to have been made in AD565 by the Irish missionary St Columba when he came across a giant beast in the River Ness.
But no one has ever come up with a satisfactory explanation for the sightings - although in 2019, 'Nessie expert' Steve Feltham, who has spent 24 years watching the Loch, said he thought it was actually a giant Wels Catfish, native to waters near the Baltic and Caspian seas in Europe.
An online register lists more than 1,000 total Nessie sightings, created by Mr Campbell, the man behind the Official Loch Ness Monster Fan Club and is available at www.lochnesssightings.com.
So what could explain these mysterious sightings?
Many Nessie witnesses have mentioned large, crocodile-like scutes sitting atop the spine of the creature, leading some to believe an escaped amphibian may be to blame.
Native fish sturgeons can also weigh several hundred pounds and have ridged backs, which make them look almost reptilian.
Some believe Nessie is a long-necked plesiosaur - like an elasmosaur - that survived somehow when all the other dinosaurs were wiped out.
Others say the sightings are down to Scottish pines dying and flopping into the loch, before quickly becoming water-logged and sinking.
While submerged, botanical chemicals start trapping tiny bubbles of air.
Eventually, enough of these are gathered to propel the log upward as deep pressures begin altering its shape, giving the appearance of an animal coming up for air.
Citizens of Iowa reported seeing more than 1,100 unidentified flying objects, according to the National UFO Reporting Center (NUFORC).
While the state doesn’t rank quite as high as California, Washington, Florida or Texas for overall reportage, the reports listed on the NUFORC for the Hawkeye State are something to behold. There were more than 200 instances of “triangle” shaped objects spotted in the sky, along with multiple instances of a “green ring” light.
A number of similar reports were made at the same locations, on the same days. For example, on Dec. 23, 2020, multiple people reported a huge number of lights, triangular-shaped objects and very fast-moving white lights.
“I was washing my car and taking pictures of it. When I looked back at the pictures I noticed a black circle in the sky in the picture,” one person from Pleasantville reported on the site, attaching an image of an alleged flying saucer.
To date, NUFORC has collected more than 150,000 UFO sighting reports, according to their homepage. Between May and June 2022, the site collected more than 700 new reports.
The Senate Intelligence Committee raised more than a few eyebrows recently when they requested that Pentagon UFO investigators focus more on those that are specifically “not man-made.”
Ever since United States Congress held its first hearing on UFOs in more than 50 years, members of the U.S. Senate have been complaining about the slow pace with which the Pentagon has been setting up its UFO investigation arm.
One of the few notable moves so far by the Pentagon appears to be the fact that it changed the name of the organization from Airborne Object Identification and Management Group (AOIMSG) to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO).
Sen. Mark Warner recentlywrote in a report, “At a time when cross-domain transmedium threats to United States national security are expanding exponentially, the Committee is disappointed with the slow pace of DoD-led efforts to establish the office to address those threats. The Committee was hopeful that the new office [AARO] would address many of the structural issues hindering progress.”
The same report asked for “the formal DoD and Intelligence Community definition of the terms used by the office … be updated to include space and undersea, and the scope of the Office shall be inclusive of those additional domains with [a] focus on addressing technology surprise and ‘unknown unknowns.”
The Senate Intel Committee wants investigators to focus on UFOs that are ‘not man-made’
The committee also asked that “temporary nonattributed objects, or those that are positively identified as man-made after analysis, will be passed to appropriate offices and should not be considered under the definition as unidentified aerospace-undersea phenomena.”
The Senate Intelligence Committee asking investigators with the new organization to specifically focus on UFOs, or as the government like to refer to them, Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAP), that are not identified as “man-made” certainly opens the door to speculation as to what exactly would not qualify, i.e. what UAPs are the Committee aware of that are not man-made?
Of course, the party line is that no one in government has ever been witness to such a thing… atleastofficially.
New DNA Research Shows Egyptian Pharaoh Could Be An Alien Hybrid
New DNA Research Shows Egyptian Pharaoh Could Be An Alien Hybrid
A new genetic study suggests a lineage of Egyptian pharaohs were subjected to willful genetic manipulation by a technologically advanced civilization.
Some would call this definitive proof that the builders of the pyramids had a strong connection with beings that originated elsewhere in the universe.
Stuart Fleischmann, Assistant Professor of Comparative Genomics at the Swiss University in Cairo and his team have recently published the results of a 7-year study that mapped the genomes of 9 ancient Egyptian Pharaohs. If proven correct, their findings could potentially change the world’s history books.
Fleischmann and his team subjected the precious samples of ancient DNA to a process called Polymerse Chain Reaction (PCR). In the field of molecular biology this technique is often used to replicate and amplify a single copy of a piece of DNA, giving researchers a clear picture of someone’s genetic fingerprint.
Eight out of nine samples returned interesting but typical results. The ninth sample belonged to Akhenaten, the enigmatic 14th century BC pharaoh and father of Tutankhamun.
A small fragment of desiccated brain tissue had been the source of the DNA sample and the test was repeated using bone tissue but the same results were obtained.
One of the culprits was a gene called CXPAC-5, which is responsible for cortex growth. The anomaly is visible in the image below.
The right section shows the prevalence of the CXPAC5 gene in a normal human. On the left we have Ahenaten’s DNA sample.
It appears this increased activity in Akhenaten’s genome would suggest he had a higher cranial capacity because of the need to house a larger cortex. But what mutation would have caused a human brain to grow? We have yet to discover such a technique despite years of breakthroughs in genetics. Could this 3,300 year-old evidence point out ancient genetic manipulation? Was it the work of advanced extraterrestrial beings?
Is the mythology of ancient Egypt more than a collection of allegoric tales? Prof. Fleischmann explains:
“Telomerase [a genetic enzyme] is only expended by two processes: extreme aging and extreme mutation. Genetic and archaeological data suggests Amenhotep IV/Akhenaten lived to about 45 years of age. That is not nearly enough to consume all the chromosomal telomerase, leaving behind one inconvenient but possible explanation.
“This hypothesis is also backed up by the fact that electron microscope analysis revealed signs of nucleotidic cicatrix, which is a telltale sign of the DNA helix healing after being exposed to strong mutagens.”
Does this suggest that Akhenaten, one of ancient Egypt’s most mysterious pharaohs, was subjected to genetic modification during his life? If anything, this allegation supports the theory that ancient aliens once visited the civilization that lived along the banks of the Nile.
Another interesting piece of evidence provides backing to this hypothesis. The image below shows two microscope photographs of osseous tissue sampled from the skull of Akhenaten and that of a different mummy of the same age.
The bone tissue on the left is far denser and fundamentally different at a nanoscopic scale. Could this increase in strength of the skull bones be an indicator of increased brain development?
“This is an exciting finding, to say the least,” Fleischmann told press. “My team and I have submitted the papers for peer review and we’ve done and redone the tests enough times that we’re confident they’re accurate.
“I don’t know the full implication of our findings but I certainly believe they should at least point the scientific community in a direction that would have been immediately dismissed just a few decades ago.”
If this study is correct, it could trigger an unprecedented paradigm shift. If aliens were actively involved in the life of the most powerful individuals thousands of years ago, does that mean they’ll return? Perhaps they never left at all.
But the most important aspect would be the existence of individuals, direct descendants of ancient Egypt’s royal lineage, that still posses the alien genes implanted in their ancestors’ genomes.

Cigar-shaped UFO and 3 entities witnessed by Joyce Bowles and Ted Pratt, Winchester, England, 1976
"We realised that three figures were watching us from a window in the cigar," said Mrs Bowles. "Then one of the figures materialised by the Mini. He peeped through my window at the dashboard controls and walked to the back of the car. Then he and the cigar-shaped craft simply vanished."
A United States RB-47 & Its Crew Had An Astonishing UFO Experience That Was Never Explained
A United States RB-47 & Its Crew Had An Astonishing UFO Experience That Was Never Explained
On July 17, 1957, a US Air Force RB-47 underwent an extraordinary experience now considered one of the classic radar/visual UFO sightings.
In 1947 a US RB-47 encounter a UFO after leaving Forbes Air Force Base
Equipped with electronic intelligence (ELINT) gear, the aircraft left Forbes Air Force Base, Topeka, Kansas, on a multipurpose mission that included gunnery, navigation, and electronic countermeasure (ECM) exercises. Three of its six-man crew were electronic-welfare officers who ran the ECM equipment.
In the early morning hours, the first two parts of its mission completed, the RB-47 was returning over the Gulf coast near Gulfport, Mississippi, when Frank B McClure, who was manning the second ELINT station (of three aboard the aircraft), noticed a signal at 3000 megahertz (MHz) frequency at five o'clock relative to the plane's position. McClure initially assumed the signal was coming from a ground-based radar, but then it moved upscope, crossed the RB-47's flight path, and descended downscope on the other side. ELINT station #1 was not working the frequency at the time, and station #3 was incapable of operating on that frequency at any time. Though puzzled, McClure said nothing, assuming that there must be some mundane explanation.
Near Meridian, Mississippi, the plane turned west, travelling at 34,500 feet and 500 mph. Soon afterwards, at 4:10 am., over east-central Louisiana, Major Lewis D Chase, the pilot, saw an intense blue light at eleven o'clock. He called it to the attention of his co-pilot, 1st Lieutenant James H McCoid, and the two watched the light moving rapidly toward them. Then immediately notified the crew that evasive action would have to be taken, but before that happened, the object instantaneously changed direction and streaked in front of them, disappearing at two o'clock.
Remembering the odd signal he had received some minutes earlier, McClure set his equipment to scan the 3000 MHz range and found he was getting a strong signal from the plane's two o'clock position. A check of the #2 monitor on known ground-radar stations indicated it was functioning perfectly, and the signal also appeared on the #1 monitor, run by John J Provenzano. The possibility that an unknown ground-radar station was responsible for the signal was eliminated when the signal moved gradually upscope - not downscope, as it should have if its source were on the ground - even as the RB-47 continued on its westward path at 500 mph.
Now the plane and its crew were in east Texas, within the radar-coverage area of an Air Force radar unit (codenamed "Utah") in Duncanville. The aircraft's occupants were growing ever more uneasy about their enigmatic companion. At 4:39 the pilot saw a "huge" light 5000 feet below him at two o'clock. Though he could not prove it, he had a strong sense that the light was on top of a larger object. A minute later McClure at ELINT #2 reported two signals at 40 and 70 degrees. The first UFO was at the latter location, and now both Chase and McCoid spotted another object at the former site. The second UFO was visible only briefly.
Chase notified Utah and asked for all possible assistance as he left his flight path and headed toward one of the UFOs. It was now 4:42, and ELINT #2 had one signal at 20 degrees' bearing. When Chase accelerated to 550 mph, the UFO pulled away. Seconds later McClure had two signals again at 40 and 70 degrees, and a minute and a half later only one, at 50 degrees. Utah asked Chase to tell it where the UFO was, and when he reported its location (10 miles northwest of Fort Worth), Utah picked it up immediately on its radar scopes. At 4:50 the UFO seemed to stop suddenly, and the RB-47 flew past it. At this moment it disappeared from the scopes, and ELINT #2 lost the signal.
Later, when interviewed by University of Arizona physicist James E Mcdonald, Chase (in McDonald's paraphrase) recalled that there was simultaneity between the moment when he began to sense that he was getting closure at approximately the RB-47 speed and the moment when Utah indicated that their target had stopped on their scopes. He said he veered a bit to avoid colliding with the object, not then being sure what its altitude was relative to the RB-47, and then found that he was coming over the top of it as he proceeded to close. At the instant that it blinked out visually and disappeared simultaneously from the #2 monitor and from the radar scopes at the site in Utah, it was at a depression angle relative to his position of something like 45 degrees.
Chase began a turn over the Mineral Wells, Texas, area, to get back on his original flight path, which would take him north in the direction of Forbes AFB. Suddenly the light reappeared behind them, and the instant it did, Utah and ELINT #2 were documenting its presence. The RB-47 again moved toward the UFO, getting within five nautical miles of it before it dropped to 15,000 feet, blinked out, and again vanished both visually and electronically.
At 4:55, concerned about his fuel situation, Chase notified Utah that he had to get back to Forbes. Two minutes later, at 300 degrees' bearing, McClure picked up a signal, and at 4:58 Chase observed the UFO 20 miles northwest of Fort Worth. The UFO trailed the aircraft, all the while emitting signals picked up by ELINT #2 until the object and signal disappeared over Oklahoma City at 5:40. The UFO and the RB-47 had kept company for 800 miles.
Aftermath
Both Project Blue Book and Air Defense Command Intelligence investigated the incident shortly after it occurred, though no account of it appeared in print until the publication, 12 years later, of Scientific Investigation of Unidentified Flying Objects, informally and better known as the Condon report. (Physicist Edward U Condon headed the Air Force-sponsored University of Colorado UFO Project (the "Condon Committee") between 1966 and 1969.) Committee investigator Gordon David Thayer, a physicist and radar expert, declared the case unexplained and later characterized the official Blue Book explanation (that the "UFO" was an airliner) as "literally ridiculous."
Subsequently, McDonald interviewed all six crew members, uncovered official records unavailable to the Condon Committee, and corrected some errors in Thayer's version (principally the date, which Thayer had as September 20). Despite a convoluted reinterpretation by debunker Phillip J. Klass, who speculated that a complex series of radar errors and the fortuitous appearances, consecutively, of a meteor, the star Vega, and an airliner were responsible for the event, the incident remains as puzzling today as it was in the early morning hours of July 17, 1957.
In 1974, scientists sent a message containing the location of the Earth in the solar system, our DNA structure, and other relevant details in space. In 2001, we received a response that has gone unnoticed by everyone.
In an effort to discover intelligent alien life, Carl Sagan sent a transmission known as the ‘Arecibo’ message into space via radio waves.
The message addressed to intelligent extraterrestrial beings was the most powerful radio transmission ever transmitted to space by humanity.
By comparison, the signal sent into space was a million times stronger than a typical television broadcast.
Aimed at a group of stars located more than 25,000 light years away, the pictorial message was sent in the hope that one day we would receive a similar response from another civilization.
The radio signal included the location of our planet Earth within our star system, the basics of mathematics and science, and the type of antenna that was used to relay the signal – all characteristics that an intelligent alien civilization should understand. .
The message prepared by Carl Sagan and his colleagues also included information about our species, our music, even our physical appearance was included in the radio message, as well as in our DNA codes.
A few years after the signal was sent, people forgot about it. Then, 27 years later, already in 2001, a ” Crop Circle ” that is, a crop circle appeared shaking the scientific community.
A pattern appeared in a farm field, right next to the UK’s largest telescope and observatory, the Chilbolton, where the world’s largest fully addressable weather radar is located, and the surprise was that it looked like a response to the transmission sent. way back in 1974.
It was considered by many to be one of the most impressive and important crop circles ever to appear on our planet, as this circle, unlike others, carried a message direct from space.
While many dismissed the crop circle near Chilbolton as yet another hoax, analysis showed that it carried a message, or rather a response from another civilization.
Describing a different solar system in the universe, the emitter image, non-human DNA, and some microwave antennae, the Chilbolton Crop Circle was the final answer we had always hoped for.
Incredibly, just a year before the extraterrestrial message was discovered, in the year 2000 a circle of unknown shape appeared alongside Chilbolton.
A year later, the puzzle was put together, and we could see that the crop circle that appeared in 2000 was, in fact, a representation of the microwave telescope used to transmit the signal to us.
In 2001, three days after the mysterious answer appeared alongside Chilbolton; another crop circle was found depicting what appeared to be an alien face.
According to the librarypleyades.net portal, the decimal equivalents of the binary code were not modified with respect to the original ‘Arecibo’. But the atomic numbers of the elements that make up the basis of life had been altered:
Silicon, an element with an atomic number of 14, was added in precisely the correct sequence: between oxygen (atomic number 8) and phosphorus (atomic number 15).
In 1969, the late Ben Volcani, a renowned microbiologist at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, discovered the crucial role of silicon in carbon-based life.
His work and that of his colleagues (such as Charles Mehard, also at Scripps, and Edith Carlisle in the 1970s at UCLA) demonstrated that the presence of silicon is critical in a variety of terrestrial life forms, as well as in the structure of human cells: example, in the union of cartilage and mineral aspects of bones.
It remains to be debated whether the crop circle that appeared alongside Chilbolton was, in fact, an extraterrestrial response.
However, many people are firmly convinced that not only is the 2001 Chilbolton an actual message from another intelligent alien civilization in the universe, but we receive similar messages almost every day.

Humans Originated On Another Planet – Where They Eventually Evolved, Before Being Taken To Earth In The Very Distant Past
Humans Originated On Another Planet – Where They Eventually Evolved, Before Being Taken To Earth In The Very Distant Past
A researcher argues that humans evolved on a different planet and were eventually brought to Earth in the very distant past.
What if we are the aliens we’ve been searching for all along? Despite the progress made in various science branches like biology, chemistry, and astrophysics, we are still unable to say for certain how life started on Earth.
Was this a unique event across the universe? Or is it possible that there are out there planets eerily similar to Earth, which harbor life, even if it is just primitive?
The truth is that we have theorized about the origins of life ever since the human mind was capable of thinking.
Did life come from space? Did life originate on the planet, without ‘extraterrestrial’ (Comets, Asteroids, etc.) influence? What’s the science behind human origins?
If amino acids arrived with comet impacts, it would suggest, as some experts argue, that life may be widespread in our solar system.
But what if things are not so simple? What if the origins of life are anything but rational?
What if humans are NOT from Earth?
That’s a controversial subject touched by the book written by American ecologist Dr. Ellis Silver. Humans Are Not From Earth His book, titled ‘Humans are not from Earth: a scientific evaluation of the evidence,’ suggests that our species is not native to Earth and may have come from elsewhere.
Dr. Silver provides arguments based on various subjects like human psychology, arguing that humankind did not evolve alongside other life forms on Earth. Instead, the researcher indicates that humans came into existence on a different planet, and we were ‘brought to Earth’ in the very distant past.
The book offers five distinctive points:
The researcher explained that his book is based on the scientific differences between humans and other animals on Earth.
The Earth approximately meets our needs as a species, but perhaps not as strongly as whoever brought us here initially thought,” explained Dr. Silver in an interview.
The researcher points towards chronic diseases that affect the human race, like back pain, indicating it could be a sign that proves our species formed on another world, with much less gravity.
Dr. Silver also mentions other uniquely human traits: humans have 223 extra genes, not found in any other species.
The American researcher further suggests the human race has several ‘serious flaws’ that point to the possibility we are not from this planet.
“We are all chronically ill,” Dr. Silver explains.
“Indeed, if you can find a single person who is 100% fit and healthy and not suffering from some (perhaps hidden or unstated) condition or disorder (there’s an extensive list in the book), I would be amazed – I have not been able to find anyone.” “I believe that many of our problems stem from the simple fact that our internal body clocks have evolved to expect a 25-hour day (sleep researchers have proved this), but the Earth’s day is only 24 hours. This is not a modern condition – the same factors can be traced all the way back through humankind’s history on Earth.”
So, if we are not from Earth, where did we come from?
Dr. Silva argues that one possibility is , the closest star system to the sun.
In his book, Silva explains that even though humankind is supposedly the most developed species on the planet, it is surprisingly unsuited and ill-equipped for our planet’s environment: humans are harmed by sunlight and tend to have a strong dislike for naturally occurring (raw) foods. The researcher argues that humans have ridiculously high rates of chronic disease, among other things. “My thesis,” says Silver, “proposes that mankind did not evolve from that particular strain of life, but evolved elsewhere and was transported to Earth (as fully evolved Homo sapiens) between 60,000 and 200,000 years ago.” And while we may not have arrived on earth in alien spaceships, experts conducting simulations using supercomputers at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in the US have discovered that amino acids, the building blocks of life, may have reached our planet from outer space via comets or meteors.
This single possibility suggests that life is not unique on Earth, and there could be similar forms of life on distant alien moons and planets, some of them even inside our very own cosmic neighborhood.
The Solar and Heliospheric Observatory has captured once again a composite of images depicting a shadowy object around the sun, appearing to be at the end of a tendril extending into the sun. The latest images depicting the unknown planet-sized object were taken on April 19th, 2022, ten years after the first footage depicting the exactly same object was taken. In the image sequence, the dark object is surrounded by a burst of brightly lit material that can be seen erupting from the sun’s surface. The orb then separates from the sun and rockets into space.
Many are suspecting it to be a refueling UFO spaceship. However, according to NASA scientists, the feature is actually little-understood, but frequently observed. It’s a type of solar activity called a “prominence” – a phenomenon caused by cooler, denser plasma interacting with highly charged coronal plasma. In other words, it could be an optical illusion created by the plasma.
In the image series from 2012 and 2022, there is a burst of activity around the prominence, and then it and the filament channel shoot out into space immediately afterwards. According to Joseph Gurman, a project scientist in the Solar Physics Laboratory at NASA Goddard, the first event was probably an outburst of the sun’s magnetic field called a coronal mass ejection.
“It’s generally accepted, though still not conclusively proven, that prominence eruptions occur when the overlying magnetic field that contains the prominence material is disrupted,”
The inconsistencies with the official claims by NASA scientists
Our question is, if it’s an outburst of the sun’s magnetic field, why doesn’t the prominence appear to move along with the sun as it rotates, but remains stationary? Also, while observing the footage, one couldn’t help but notice how it is situated in the exact same location as it was in the footage from 2012. How could a coronal mass ejection happen in the exact same spot creating the exact same illusion it did ten years ago?
Does it look like a solar eruption or a refueling UFO spaceship? You may take a look at the footage below.
James Webb-telescoop vindt verst verwijderde sterrenstelsels, die zowat 250 miljoen jaar na de oerknal ontstonden
Ploegend door de data van de James Webb Ruimtetelescoop (JWST) hebben astronomen alweer nieuwe recordbrekende informatie gevonden. Zo ontdekten ze sterrenstelsels die wellicht het verst verwijderd zijn.
Voordat de James Webb-telescoop de ruimte in werd geslingerd, was het verst verwijderde sterrenstelsel - voor zover bekend - GN-z11. GN-z11 zou zo'n 420 miljoen jaar na de oerknal zijn ontstaan. De recent ontdekte sterrenstelsels ontstonden wellicht al 250 miljoen jaar na de oerknal, bijna 200 miljoen jaar eerder dan GN-z11 dus.

Lava tubes on Mars and the Moon are up to 1,000 times bigger than those on Earth and are so wide they could be used to host planetary bases for future space exploration, study shows
Lava tubes on Mars and the Moon are up to 1,000 times bigger than those on Earth and are so wide they could be used to host planetary bases for future space exploration, study shows
Researchers used lava tubes on the Earth to determine their size on other worlds
Those on the Moon are the largest and reach up to 100ft wide and 25 miles long
They are in the subsurface of the worlds and provide a constant temperature
Lava tubes under the surface of the Moon and Mars are so large they could host entire planetary bases for future space exploration, planetary scientists claim.
Researchers at the Universities of Bologna and Padua studied the subsurface cavities that lava created billions of years ago under the surface of Mars and the Moon.
These cavities can shield from cosmic radiations, according to the team, who found the celestial bodies held lava tubes up to 1,000 times larger than those on Earth.
Similar tubes found on Earth were measured by the team and used to estimate the size of the ones thought to exist underneath the surface of the other worlds.
The largest of the tubes are found on the Moon and are up to 100ft wide and more than 25 miles long, enough for a base the size of a small town, the team said.
This is an artistic rendering of a possible lava tube. These cavities can shield from cosmic radiation and the Moon holds lava tubes up to 1,000 times larger than those on Earth
The team used data from various interplanetary probes to determine the size and scale of the lava tubes on the Moon and Mars
Tubes found on the Moon are larger than those on Earth or Mars due to the much lower gravity and the impact it had on lava flows in its early development.
Francesco Sauro, of the European Space Agency and Riccardo Pozzobon, a planetary geologist at the University of Padua estimated their scale.
'We can find lava tubes on planet Earth, but also on the subsurface of the Moon and Mars according to the high-resolution pictures of lava tubes' skylights taken by interplanetary probes,' said Sauro.
'Evidence of lava tubes was often inferred by observing linear cavities and sinuous collapse chains where the galleries cracked.'
The way these lava tubes appear on the surface of the Moon and Mars is similar to ones found on the Earth - particularly in Hawaii, Canary Islands and Australia.
These images show the different ways lava tubes are produced on the Earth, Moon and Mars
These tubes have been extensively studied on Earth and the findings have been used to estimate their size, shape and scale on other celestial bodies.
'We measured the size and gathered the morphology of lunar and Martian collapse chains (collapsed lava tubes), using digital terrain models,' said Pozzobon
These were taken from satellite images and laser altimetry devices carried by various interplanetary probes over the years.
'We then compared these data to topographic studies about similar collapse chains on the Earth's surface and to laser scans of the inside of lava tubes in Lanzarote and the Galapagos,' he said.
'These data allowed to establish a restriction to the relationship between collapse chains and subsurface cavities that are still intact'.
Researchers found that Martian and lunar tubes are respectively 100 and 1,000 times wider than those on Earth, which typically have a diameter of up to 98ft.
Lower gravity and its effect on early volcanism helped explain why the tubes on the Moon and Mars are so much larger than on the Earth, the team explained.
Riccardo Pozzobon said tubes this wide can be longer than 25 miles going under the subsurface of the Moon - making it an 'extraordinary target for subsurface exploration and potential settlement'.
These tubes have a wide, protected and stable environment and are big enough that they could contain the entirety of a small town.
'What is most important is that, despite the impressive dimension of the lunar tubes, they remain well within the roof stability threshold because of a lower gravitational attraction', explains Matteo Massironi, from the University of Padua.
'This means that the majority of lava tubes underneath the maria smooth plains are intact,' the planetary geologist explained.
The team used various techniques including 3D modelling to track the path of the lava tubes on the celestial bodies
The authors found that on the Moon the tubes are up to 100ft wide with a length of 25 miles
'The collapse chains we observed might have been caused by asteroids piercing the tube walls. This is what the collapse chains in Marius Hills seem to suggest. From the latter, we can get access to these huge underground cavities'.
Sauro explained that they would provide stable shields from cosmic and solar radiation as well as micrometeorite impacts that happen often on planetary bodies.
A number of projects and design challenges have been happening across the world to create potentially safe designs to help in the colonising of other worlds.
They have used everything from 3D printed materials made from lunar regolith, to beehive like lattice structures design to block meteorites and radiation.
The benefit of the lava tubes, assuming the estimates of their size prove to be correct, would be similar to the human made structures - without the need to build.
They would also have great potential for providing an environment in which temperatures do not vary from day- to night-time.
Researchers examined lava tubes found on Earth to estimate the size and scale of those on the Moon and on Mars
Tubes were found on Mars and the Moon by orbiting satellites and are seen as circles or dents in the surface
'Space agencies are now interested in planetary caves and lava tubes, as they represent a first step towards future explorations of the lunar surface,' said Sauro.
Researchers also point out how this study opens up to a completely new perspective in planetary exploration, which is focusing on the subsurface of Mars and the Moon.
'In autumn 2019, ESA called up universities and industries with a campaign seeking ideas for developing technologies for lunar caves exploration,' said Unibo professor Jo Da Waele, an author of the study.
'They are specifically looking for systems that would land on the lunar surface to operate missions exploring lunar tubes', De Waele explained.
Since 2012, in collaboration with some European universities including Bologna and Padua, ESA has been carrying out two training programmes for astronauts focusing on the exploration of underground systems and planetary geology.
These programmes include lava tubes on the island of Lanzarote and 36 astronauts from five space agencies have received training in cave hiking.
NASA plans to send a manned mission to Mars in the 2030s after first landing on the Moon
Mars has become the next giant leap for mankind's exploration of space.
But before humans get to the red planet, astronauts will take a series of small steps by returning to the moon for a year-long mission.
Details of a the mission in lunar orbit have been unveiled as part of a timeline of events leading to missions to Mars in the 2030s.
Nasa has outlined its four stage plan (pictured) which it hopes will one day allow humans to visit Mars at he Humans to Mars Summit held in Washington DC yesterday. This will entail multiple missions to the moon over coming decades
In May 2017, Greg Williams, deputy associate administrator for policy and plans at Nasa, outlined the space agency's four stage plan that it hopes will one day allow humans to visit Mars, as well as its expected time-frame.
Phase one and two will involve multiple trips to lunar space, to allow for construction of a habitat which will provide a staging area for the journey.
The last piece of delivered hardware would be the actual Deep Space Transport vehicle that would later be used to carry a crew to Mars.
And a year-long simulation of life on Mars will be conducted in 2027.
Phase three and and four will begin after 2030 and will involve sustained crew expeditions to the Martian system and surface of Mars.
